Abstract
Tetrafluoromethane (CF4), the simplest perfluorocarbons, is a permanently potent greenhouse gas due to its powerful infrared radiation adsorption capacity. The highly symmetric and robust C-F bond structure makes its activation a great challenge. Herein, we presented an innovated approach that efficiently activates C-F bond utilizing protonated sulfate (-HSO4) modified Al2O3@ZrO2 (S-Al2O3@ZrO2) catalyst, resulting in highly efficient CF4 decomposition. By combining in situ infrared spectroscopy tests and density function theory simulations, we demonstrate that the introduced -HSO4 proton donor has a stronger interaction on the C-F bond than the hydroxyl (-OH) proton donor, which can effectively stretch the C-F bond for its activation. Consequently, the obtained S-Al2O3@ZrO2 catalyst achieved a stable 100% CF4 decomposition at a record low temperature of 580 °C with a turnover frequency value of ~8.3 times higher than the Al2O3@ZrO2 catalyst without -HSO4 modification, outperforming the previously reported results. This work paves a new way for achieving efficient C-F bond activation to decompose CF4 at a low temperature.

Abstract
In the aim of resolving environmental key issues such as irreversible soil pollution by non-biodegradable and non-recoverable polyethylene (PE) fragments, a full-scale field experiment was set up to evaluate the suitability of four biodegradable materials based on poly(butylene adipate-co-terephtalate) (PBAT) to be used as sustainable alternatives to PE for mulching application in vineyard. Initial ultimate tensile properties, functional properties during field ageing (water vapour permeability and radiometric properties), biodegradability and agronomical performance of the mulched vines (wood production and fruiting yield) were studied. In spite of their early loss of physical integrity that occurred only five months after vine planting, the four materials satisfied all the requested functional properties and led to agronomic performance as high as polyethylene. In the light of the obtained results, the mulching material lifespan was questioned in the case of long-term perennial crop such as grapevine. Taking into account their mulching efficiency and biodegradability, the four PBAT-based studied materials are proven to constitute suitable alternatives to the excessively resistant PE material.
